Algarve, Faro to Lagos
(291017) Lisbon -> Faro, PT After we came back to Lisbon from Sintra, we had to get our stuff from the hostel and meet our ride at Marquis de Pombal. The ride was at 9 PM so we were in Faro at midnight. Because we had no place to stay our driver helped us finding a suitable place. There was a park near the airport inside we tried to find a protected place. After a few minutes of walking we had a cool place in the middle of the darkness. The place must be cleaned a bit before starting to camp. As we were preparing the space some dogs started barking and the sound came closer and closer…until we realised the puffing in front of us. But we could not see anything, just heard something. We stayed calm and stood there frozen for a while. As the dogs seemed to be away we put our stuff together to look for a new place. The adrenalin kept us awake for further two hours. Meanwhile it was 3 AM. The next place was not even better because we were to close to a private ground with, wondering, dogs again. Anyways, we spent the night there and waited until the sunrise…
Bom Dia Lisboa
(231017) Nazaré -> Lisbon The landscapes between Porto and Lisbon were explored and it’s time for the capital city. We took the bus from Nazaré to Valado to arrive surely. The bus driver should have become a race driver. He drove really crazy. Anyway at the train station there was a long rope and we could dry our tent and other stuff which was reailly necessary. Drying clothes at the train station in Valada, Portugal, 10/17
Aveiro, Coimbra & Nazaré
(181017) Porto (Espinho) -> Coimbra via Aveiro On the way to Lisbon, we wanted to see what’s in between Porto and Lisbon. Our first destination was Aveiro. It was half way to Coimbra. During the train ride… A train ride that is funny, a train ride that is great….on the way to Aveiro, Portugal, 10/17
Porto, O porto
(091017) Donostia -> Bilbao We needed to get to Porto as fast as possible because Caros mum, sister and friends were around. Unfortunately we underestimated the distance which caused in a crazy ride… We left the accommodation from Thomas to head to an entrance of a motorway. A woman brought us in direction to Bilbao from where we caught a ride to Zarautz with a local guy. He was smoking his weed eased and showed us his stuff proudly. Meanwhile it was 6 PM and we decided to take the train to Bilbao to stay with a girl we met on Saturday in Donostia the first time.
